‘President has not changed position on settlement’

President Nicos Anastasiades has not changed his position as to what type of settlement solution the Greek Cypriot side is seeking, Government Spokesman Prodromos Prodromou said on Saturday.

In a written statement, Prodromou said that “the position of the Greek Cypriot side and of President Anastasiades as regards the form of the solution we seek, which is determined by the UN Resolutions and decisions, is firm, has not changed and is tabled in the most formal way at the negotiations, before the UN and elsewhere.”

He was responding to a statement by member of Akel’s political bureau Eleni Mavrou following the circulation as an official document of the UN Secretary-General’s report on the efforts to reach a solution in Cyprus.

Mavrou asked in a written statement on Saturday how the goal set by Guterres on the recommencement of the talks is being served, when Anastasiades is on the one hand declaring that “reunification is not a choice, it is a one-way road” but on the other he insinuates that when the time is right, “we should even consider a solution of two independent states instead of a bizonal-bicommunal federation”?

“Mr Anastasiades must finally give clear answers both to the UNSG and the Cypriot people,” Mavrou said.

In response, Prodromou said that the UNSG, in his report, expresses concern for the fact that since the July 2017 talks in Crans Montana, a year has passed without any negotiations, adding that the fact that the Turkish Cypriot side’s position and possibility to participate in the negotiations depends on the developments in Turkey is indeed a big problem at the negotiations.

“As to who are the ones who are working on the idea of abandoning the UN parameters and refer to ‘two states’, there is a clear reference to the General Secretary’s report,” Prodromou said. He referred to paragraph eight of the report that says: “With respect to the guarantor powers, in its public statements since July 2017 Turkey has expressed doubts as to the possibility of reaching a settlement based on the established parameters given the outcome of the conference in Crans-Montana and past failures. Turkey has nonetheless reiterated its support for a “sustainable settlement” of the Cyprus issue. Greece, for its part, has reiterated its commitment to finding a just and lasting solution to the Cyprus problem on the basis of the relevant Security Council resolutions and the framework that I had set out in Crans-Montana. Lastly, the United Kingdom has emphasised its strong support for a comprehensive settlement and its readiness to do its part to achieve that goal.”

One small change was made in the final report – circulated late on Friday – compared to the unofficial one that was given to the members of the UN Security Council on June 15. The change concerns paragraph 10 of the report, in which the name of the Italian energy company ENI has been removed.
According to local media reports, the change has nothing to do with political reasons, but due to that ENI is a public company listed on the stock exchange.

The paragraph now reads: “10. Tensions over hydrocarbon activities, however, began to escalate early in 2018. Most significantly, on 9 February, an Italian energy company was prevented by Turkish military ships from gaining access to a planned drilling area in the exclusive economic zone of Cyprus. In mid-March, the company’s drillship departed the eastern Mediterranean without having been able to conduct its intended exploratory drilling.”

In his report, UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres also says that in the coming period he intends to send a senior United Nations official to conduct in-depth consultations with the parties in the framework of the efforts to solve the Cyprus issue.

The UNSG says: “I believe there is still scope for the sides to act responsibly and decisively in order to chart a common way forward for the island.”

The consultations, he said, will provide a more formal, structured, and detailed channel for the parties to convey to the United Nations the outcomes of their reflection since Crans-Montana and to help determine whether conditions have or have not matured at this stage for a meaningful process. “I encourage the parties to recognise the importance of this exercise and to seize the opportunity accordingly,” Guterres said in the report.

Islamo-fascist Turkey hasn’t change her position either. Erdogan and his thugs in Ankara continue to insist on a loose-confederation, to have Turkish troops on the island, to be guarantors, and have intervention rights. Accepting the Turks as guarantors with these rights, would be like having the wolves to guard the sheep. They will tear them apart. Not a single Greek Cypriot with a sound mind would agree to it.

There can be as many U.N. reports, U.N. Resolutions and U.N. Special Representatives and others toing and froing to the island but nothing will happen unless the island’s politicos display goodwill to sit down in a meaningful way and negotiate in good faith.

On past record, they have no intention of doing so the game is well and truly up: formal partition it is.

First rule of politics and good business. When you are closing a long drawn out process that has lead no where, you document the positions and outstanding wish lists of the sides. Send a person to collect the baggage of decades and culminate the process with ‘case closed’. The UN Sec Gen is now moving in that direction

This is the end of ‘unified Cyprus’, and probably the Bi-Bi construction.

It then will lead down the much quicker new path of two states, both already in the EU and requiring a vote of TC’s only to remove the association with the South and a formal new name.

The UN will provide the chair for the new state as they declare the long charade over.

Slight land adjustments to be made, compensation largely the GC’s formally keep the TC property in the South, the TC’s keep the GC property that hasn’t already been paid for – more than £ 260 million.

The real refugees on both sides can evict the non refugees occupying the respective properties and all benefit for once goes to them.

Very tidy and relatively quick and fair end to the Cyprob industry. The Elite being the main losers for once.

Do you really think the Turks are that stupid?

It is a very Black and White situation that you either make a choice by Recognising the TRNC or you don’t;
Now if you take the choice and refuse to recognise the TRNC which is the most likely hood;
You will find one of Turkeys alliances will make the move if not the UK may well eventually do this as the it is evident the through the UN channels that; 18 Proposals were refused by the ROC; Annan Plan Refused by the ROC; Crans-Montana solely Collapsed because of the ROC;
None of these UN sponsored events wont be going anywhere without a Examination and a Consideration;

The TRNC is already partially Recognised and the next will be the Direct Flights which is in Parliament as we speak;

If at the worse Recognition does not happen then the other option is Turkey carrying out its Annexation,

Don’t wait for ‘formal partition’. The two separate states are in existence since a long time and your country’s approval is not needed when other sovereign states will recognize the TRNC which is only a matter of time now.

Why doesn’t he just call it a day. Does he really believe that a solution between the GCs and TCs is possible apart from the Formalisation of the Partition.Come out from Cyprus as soon as possible and save the tax payers money. That will be the biggest contribution towards the Cyprus Problem. No more time wasting negotiations.

Iron mike

Official partition needs the consent of the recognized RoC something that will not be coming any time soon And the rest of the world will not recognize an entity that was created by violence and the mass expulsion if the indegiious population These are the facts that you and others like you don’t seem to understand

Turkey behaves like a school bully it only attacks small and weak countries It reminds me of the way Nazi Germany behaved towards Czechoslovakia in 1938 Obviously other countries are complicit in the way Turkey behaves and by that I mean Britain and Russia Turkey knows her self importance with these countries and behaves with impunity

Since you reply to an irrelevant waffler I thought you might learn hard facts. There is no discrepancy between TRNC and Turkey’s stance on a Cyprob solution. Both want want the same and Anastasiades wants something different, hence the twain (threesome) shalll never meet.

Actually i think Turkey wants partition whereas Akinci wants a loose federation with the GC so I think you are wrong Turkey and the Tc want a different solution

You are wrong. At the referendum for a BBF Turkey agreed with the YES of the TRNC while the South voted OXI. Turkey will go along with a Turkish Cypriot decision in a referendum. On both sides, the ultimate deciders are the local voters.
